Low OC temps

[agello24]

Has anyone found a good air cooler that can keep a ryzen 5 @ 3.7 in the high 50's? the hyper 212 aint cutting it. im getting temps around 65. i was looking at the 5 and 6 copper pipe air coolers. i have yet to see anyone test any of them on the ryzen family of chips.

65 is absolutely fine. why do you want cooler temps?

Maybe if you got some monstrosity like the V8 GTS; however, at that price point get an AIO.

I use the Noctua NH-U12S SE-AM4.  I have my Ryzen 5 1600 clocked at 3.8 at 1.35v.  My temperature reaches 61c with Aida64 and 63c in Prime95.  Ambient temperature is 24c.

I agree, 65c is perfectly fine.

Your temps will be higher ion the summer cause the temperature is higher in the summer.

im used to my oc fx 8310 being at 57 on full load. im still old school and temps in the 60's were bios  warning temps.

CPUs these days can go up to 100c without dying, but realistically anything over 85-90c is uncomfortably high.

all the fans i have on it, made me forget about it being summer. thats a good reminder, also i forgot that i use DVD fab that uses ALL the cores and threads at full load.

thanks all for the replies.

V8 GTS isn't much better than Dark Rock 3 and costs almost twice as much. So bad choice if one wants more cooling power. D15 and likes would be way to go.

FX series have much different thermal limits where 65C would be max (I believe). I've seen Ryzen chips going for almost Intel's temp readings during review stress tests under OC. So you can't compare them just like that. I think you are pretty much at air coolings limit atm. You can go somewhat lower with good dual tower and bit more with custom loop. But honestly not worth it.
